The contact owns a 2015 Ford Edge. The contact stated that when she turns off the vehicle after driving and later attempts to restart, the vehicle would fail to start and the steering wheel would seize. The contact stated that the vehicle would indicate that there was a system reset, and the failure would reoccur. A jump start was required in order to start the vehicle.

The vehicle was taken to a dealer who checked the battery and alternator, which they found no issue with. The contact stated the dealer then advised her that there was a recall with the same failure she was experiencing on her same year, make, and model vehicle NHTSA Campaign Number: 16V733000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL), however, her vehicle was not included in the recall.

According to Bob Tomes Ford in McKinney, Texas, they are unable to rotate the tires on my vehicle because the lug nuts are swollen and would have to be cut off and replaced to fix. This leaves me with an unsafe vehicle and an inability to change the tire should I have a flat.

Rear window shattered on its own. I know it sounds crazy but it happened to me. The window blew up right above my head. I searched it on Google it actually happens a lot on this suv. A little odd there’s no recall on the window just magically shattering.

Material used for tail light housing develop cracks from changes in temperature allowing water into the housing and impacting the function of brake and reverse lights.

Wire harness worn through in passenger door. Wire harness retaining clip is located incorrectly and not attached causing the wire harness to rub on the inner door frame brace causing the power window motor to burn out filling the cabin with smoke possible fire danger.

Driving on the interstate at 60 miles an hour the vehicle randomly lost all propulsion and died, which caused an immediate quick slowdown and almost caused a 4 car/semi pileup. Causing me to hit the ditch to avoid being killed by a semi. Vehicle no longer starts. Appears to be a faulty flexplate that caused engine and transmission issues to which Ford has been no help. FORD has only recalled the 2017 edge 2.0 for the flexplate issues despite the same engine being used in the 2015-2018 models. Countless mentions of faulty flex plates in the model year range with the same engine but Ford refuses to address the mass issue.

Vehicle suddenly accelerated uncontrollably. Incident occurred in a parking lot. Car spun around, but no damage was sustained. Incident lasted for about 30 seconds and then vehicle shut off completely. Dealer performed diagnostic but could not find any problems.

The flex plate on the vehicle has broken twice within 10000 miles. This is most certainly a manufacturer defect. The vehicle then runs rough, has a loss of power along with transmission shifting issues and can nearly die or not accelerate properly while driving, leading to several near collisions which could result serious injury or death.

The contact owns a 2015 Ford Edge. The contact stated while driving approximately 65-75 MPH, the Lane Keep Assist was veering the vehicle into another lane. There were no warning lights illuminated. The contact called the local dealer who stated that the failure may be due to the CPU being corrupt. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified however, no further assistance was provided. The approximate failure mileage was 62,000.
